Looking at Volkswagen’s latest1.5 TDI, Fiat is said to be putting together a 1.5 liter-4 cylinder Multijet turbo diesel engine. The motor will first make an appearance on the Jeep compact SUV range in 2016, and could later be adapted to power various new Fiat cars. They will also be looking to Maruti Suzuki's interest of using the same in the S cross and the new gen cars the the sub-4 meter excise duty reduction standards.

Fiat India starts development work on the development of 1.5 MJD. To be available by 2016.
The new Fiat multijet engine will be derived from the existing 1.6-litre engine, with a power rating of about 113bhp of power and a maximum torque of 290Nm. This will make Fiat at par with its competition, as at the moment what Fiat has been lacking are powerful engine options for its Linea and Punto Evo.

Wow, thats great news.

But 2016 is far off man, the avventura badly needs it, if not for Linea and Evo. MSIL will surely be interested in sourcing the 1.5 MJD in S Cross, even the ciaz needs one to match the city. Hope the launch is advanced.

Cheers

S cross will, if reports are to be believed, come with the 1.6 MJD by March 2015.
Ciaz and Maruti's YBA ( Sub 4m CUV), Ertiga,etc will get the 1.5 MJD in 2016.
